== Mac OS X ==
Requirements: Intel CPU and OS X 10.6 or greater

* First install XCode Developer tools 
https://developer.apple.com/xcode/

and make sure that command line tools are installed. (Alternative to XCode: https://github.com/kennethreitz/osx-gcc-installer)


When installing Jack, you want to have the 64/32 bit version.

Download and install the [http://www.jackosx.com/ Jack Audio Server for OS X] (after you install this you will need to restart).

http://qt-project.org/downloads
Then get "Qt libraries 4.8.4 for Mac (185 MB)" and install it (takes about 5 minutes excluding download time)

(You might prefer to use the [http://osx.iusethis.com/app/qjackctl qjackctl GUI] for controlling the Jack audio server instead. It just looks nicer.)

Then inside the Faust directory:
make
sudo make install



(Ran fine on Mac Book Pro Late 2008 Intel Core 2 Duo running OS X 10.8.2 at 32 samples per frame, MacBook Pro Intel Core i7 running OS X 10.7.5 with Qt version 4.7.4 at 32 samples per frame, and iMac running OS X 10.6.8 at 32 samples per frame)

== Linux ==

For beginners, 
[[Media:Example.ogg]]

sudo apt-get update

During the following, if you are prompted you should answer ''Yes'' to enable realtime process priority.

sudo apt-get install jackd1 qjackctl

sudo apt-get install libjack-dev 

Then run ''qjackctl &'' and make sure that you have permission to start Jack using realtime permissions. If not, then log out and log in again and try again.

If you still don't have permission, then read the error message in the Jack Message/Status window and follow up, making sure that the appropriate entries are in /etc/security/limits.conf and/or /etc/security/limits.d/audio.conf. You may also need to add your user to the "audio" group:
''sudo addgroup <username> audio''



On netbook, I could get it to run w/o dropouts using 64 frames/period and 8 periods/buffer. The interface was default.

On  Acer laptop, I could only get it to run w/o dropouts using 96 frames/period and 



sudo apt-get install libqt4-dev libqt4-core qt4-qmake 

For Ubuntu precise

sudo addgroup <username> dialout



For advanced users,

Download the [http://sourceforge.net/projects/faudiostream/files/faust-0.9.58.zip/download Faust source for version 0.9.58]



== Troubleshooting ==
Requires minimum Perl version 5.10

The following kinds of errors can for instance happen if you ever upgraded Faust but forgot to remove the older version of Faust: 
error: macro "max" passed 3 arguments, but takes just 2
or other particularly errors involving some standard template libraries, then please make sure you only have one version of Faust installed. You can remove all older versions of Faust by entering into each of their source directories and running
sudo make uninstall
(Then of course you will need to reinstall you favorite version of Faust 0.9.58 by going into its source directory and running ''sudo make install'')
